NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 2.--The orange
crop OF louisiana is all harvested and In

There will be none for shipment North. as

porter. But while the crop Is failure a
more favorable report comes from the
Plaquemne orange district, tor the trees

many OF them we're killed by the cold of
last January as was imagined at first.

yuspector Byrnes is a mar OF pleasing adj
lreR and suave manners He weighs about
is5 mounds. He has a keen, piercing eye, n
e an excellent Judge Of human nature lie
bss surrounded himself with a body OF re-
D,rksblv able detectives. During tho six
ye,rs Of Byrnes' inspectorShip not a single
robbery, by Il professional thief, has occurred
m the ~neighborhood Of Wall street. This is
dive 10 the branch Office which be established
10 that street Immediately after his appoint
ment to bis present position. This branch
snlce is connected by wire with every bank
ing house and the different exchanges in the
lower part Of the city. The rogues know
this. and fight shy Of the locality.
Perhaps the most important single factor
IN the Identification and apprehension OF
criminals is tho Rogues' Gallery, which con-
t.ins portraits Of every criminal OF note in
this country and Canada Most persons who
70 TO see the "Rogues' Gallery" are surprised,
and even disappointed when they are sbown
A compact cabinet, occupying very little
goaoe But it contains 1900 photographs.
InspActor Byrnes at once saw TINT the former
indiscriminats manner Of punching photo
graphs, criminal records, clippings, etc, rem
dered well nigh valueless what should be one
Of the most important aids to the service. He,
therefore, at once set about devisng an ar
rsngement for Systematically fling al OBJ
ainablo criminal data, and he has succeeded
20 well that any rosue's record, portrait, SEN
t4nce, etc, can now be found within a min
uts's time. This department Is IN charge OF
Detective Sergeant Thomas f. Adams, who
IS the inventor Of the Rogues' Gallery cabinet
and index. As soon as a man is arrested he
b taken to be photographed. The instanta-
neous process is used, and while he is being
toaxed TO sit quietly-clickl-his portrait Is
taken. In the olden times it was sometimes
hard to get a criminal to remain quiet long
szOuCh TO be taken

PH~0T0GRAPHING A CRININAL-OLD WAY.
Inspector Byrnes is also something Of an
author in his way. His professional Criminals
Of America" is a very valuable book, which
20 thief catcher can afford to be without.
Thousands Of cases might be cited TO show
that the New York detective bureau is as per-
fect as such an organization can well be, and
this IN spite Of many adverse influences. Per
haps the most important Of these is the pri-
Vate detective business which is beginning
% Rssume astonishing proportions not only In
New York, but oil over the land.
Under Inspector Byrnes are forty detect
I've bergeants, at a salary Of $1,000 O year
each. These men are selected, on account Of
their peculiar fitness, from the different pre-
eincts. Besides these there are ten policemen
Setailed as detectives and who do duty in
emergencies, or when one or moro OF tho
regular detective sergeants Is laid of by
reason Of sickness or otherwise.
Numbers Of instances Of Byrne's admins
Tatlye ability might be given il space per-
Knitted, but one case deserves especial mem
pm. Just before the Grant funeral it oc-
tuIred TO the inspector that hundreds Of
